Our goal is to be the one stop shop for leftism here at lemmy.world! We welcome anyone with beliefs ranging from SocDemocracy to Anarchism to post, discuss, and interact with our community. We are a democratic community, and as such, welcome metaposts that seek to amend the rules through consensus. Post articles, videos, questions, analysis and more. As long as it's leftist, it's welcome here!

Wow that's fucked up. I stopped keeping up with tv and pop culture stuff over a decade ago now and had no idea about most of this.

In hindsight, I really can't say I'm surprised Feilding and Brand were hanging out, or that both are misogynistic rapists. I knew far too many guys just like them back in the 2010's and it was very normslised behaviour.

A lot of men behave that way and get away with it their whole lives as they aren't famous, so I'm glad that at least it's public information and they're being called out in this case, even if it's not amounting to much beyond that.

Thanks for explaining!
